Mu Mian was already heartbroken.

She saw her daughter's hesitant decision.

In her daughter's heart, Bai Mengjie was still more important; Bai Mengjie occupied most of her time in her life.

Mu Mian only came out now.

at this time.

Gu Xiaohua was already standing in front of Mu Mian. She looked at her mother and saw the tears in her eyes.

Is Mom sad?

"Mother."

Gu Xiaohua hugged Mu Mian.

It was Xiaohua who took the initiative.

Her two little hands wrapped around Mu Mian's neck, soft and cuddly, and she looked especially adorable. "What did you call me?"

Mu Mian actually heard it.

But she wasn't quite sure.

She couldn't believe it was her daughter calling her.

"Mother."

"Mother."

"Mother."

Gu Xiaohua became happier and happier as she shouted.

So this is what blood relations are all about.

It is an unbreakable bond between them. Even though Mu Mian did not participate in Xiao Hua's growth, as long as she stands here.

This would give Gu Xiaohua a sense of security.

Gu Xiaohua called her that naturally and acknowledged her.

Mu Mian happily picked up her daughter, "Oh."

It was as if all the efforts had come to fruition at that moment.

"Xiao Guo, take your little sister to play." Madam Gu walked over and told the two children to go play. Madam Gu patted Mu Mian, "You two should have a good talk."

Mu Mian nodded.

She and Gu Xiangque really need to have a serious talk.

The two walked around the neighborhood for a while.

Finally, he sat down on a bench.

From behind, they look like a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, so well-suited.

"You knew everything?" Mu Mian asked.

She spoke first.

A very calm tone.

Gu Xiangque's emotions were also stable. On the way back, he was still indignant, blaming Mu Mian for keeping it from him.

He didn't even know they had two children; he always thought Mu Xiaoguo was Mu Mian and Li Xiang's child.

but now.

When he and Mu Mian sat together calmly, neither of them making a scene or trying to vent, he suddenly felt that nothing else mattered.

He could understand why Mu Mian didn't tell him.

From Mu Mian's perspective, what she did was not wrong; she had her concerns and worries.

But now that the truth is out, everything seems less important.

"What about Bai Mengjie?"

Gu Xiangque told Mu Mian what had happened today. He had already taken action against Bai Mengjie, and Bai Mengjie would no longer be able to affect her life.

As for Xiaohua, she also learned the truth.

Gu Xiangque learned the truth about everything.

Mu Mian had nothing to add.

"What are your thoughts on the issue of custody of the two children?" Mu Mian asked Gu Xiangque, even though Madam Gu had already expressed her opinion.

But Gu Xiangque is the one who truly has the right to speak.

His ideas are the most important.

"What do you think?" Gu Xiangque asked Mu Mian in return.

Actually, he's fine no matter what.

He was wrong in the past, and he owed Mu Mian a debt.

The two children were also born after Mu Mian carried them for ten months. He heard that childbirth is extremely painful and not something that ordinary people can endure.

Since Mu Mian gave birth to twins at the same time, was it more difficult for her than other pregnant women?

He wasn't by Mu Mian's side when she needed him most and faced the most difficult times, nor did he offer any assistance. Naturally, he had no right to demand that the two children stay with him.

If Mu Mian wants to take the child away, he's okay with that.

He wouldn't stop him, but from then on, every day would be torture for him, and life would probably be very difficult.

Mu Mian shared her thoughts.

She spoke exactly as she had just discussed with Mrs. Gu.

Gu Xiangque was shocked after hearing this.

He thought Mu Mian would take Xiao Hua with her, but he proposed that they raise the child together, with both of them having custody rights.

Mu Mian continued to live with Xiao Guo, while Gu Xiangque continued to live with Xiao Hua. Whoever had time could take care of the children.

Mu Mian wanted to take Xiao Hua away to take care of her for a few days, so she asked Gu Xiangque in advance and got his consent.

On the contrary, if Gu Xiangque misses his son, he can take Xiao Guo away at any time, as long as Mu Mian agrees.

In front of outsiders, Mu Mian would openly introduce Gu Xiangque as the father of her two children and would not hide anything.

This is good for the child.

Gu Xiangque was naturally willing to tell everyone that his two children were born to him by Mu Mian.

He is satisfied.

**

A month later.

The wedding of Bai Xian'er and Mu Lei took place.

Very lively.

All my good friends participated.

Gu Xiangque and Mu Mian also brought their child to the event, and the family of four attracted a lot of attention when they appeared in public.

But everyone knows about the relationship between Gu Xiangque and Mu Mian.

Although the two openly declared themselves to be the child's father and mother without mentioning their relationship, everyone assumed their relationship was more harmonious and tacit than that of ordinary couples.

Even everyone thought it was only a matter of time before they got back together; at least in Gu Xiangque's mind, he felt he had a very good chance.

Mu Mian, however, did not think that much about it.

She was just doing her best to take care of the children.

Since Xiaohua hadn't been by her side, she had been going to the Gu family's house frequently for the past month, visiting Xiaohua whenever she had time.

As they met more often, they naturally had more contact with Gu Xiangque.

Gu Xiangque was always a gentleman whenever they met.

He also behaved very appropriately in front of Mu Mian, maintaining their existing relationship just right without overstepping his bounds, but always flaunting himself in front of Mu Mian.

After the wedding.

Mu Mian took Mu Xiaoguo home.

"Mu Mian".

Madam Li called out to Mu Mian, "Would you like to take a walk together?"

Madam Li clearly had something to say. "Alright."

Mu Mian followed Madam Li for a stroll around the neighborhood.

What can two women talk about when they're together? Men, of course. Mu Mian has been shuttling between the kindergarten and the Gu family for almost the past month.

Several times, when Madam Li invited her to her home for dinner, Mu Mian was either on her way to the Gu family's house or already eating there.

Madam Li was a magnanimous person, and she naturally considered Mu Mian's feelings, knowing that she had just reunited with her daughter and that it was for the child's good.

But there were some things she had to ask for Li Xiang to clarify, because Li Xiang had been suffering too much during this time. "There are rumors outside that you and Gu Xiangque are getting back together."

I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to clarify that if you really want to get back together with Gu Xiangque, it's not necessarily a good thing.

Just don't delay Li Xiang's schedule.

Talk to him sooner rather than later.

"Madam Li, I..."

Mu Mian hesitated.

Her hesitation wasn't about getting back together with Gu Xiangque; she hadn't even considered it, even though she'd been getting along very well with him lately.

They both doted on their two children, and to outsiders they looked like a married couple.

But Mu Mian hadn't thought of that.

She felt that she would not get back together with Gu Xiangque.

What she hesitated about was her relationship with Li Xiang.

Mu Mian doesn't have the extra energy to focus on Li Xiang right now. She probably has to apologize to Li Xiang. She wants to focus on her child in the future.

She wants to be a good mother.

She probably won't be a good wife to Li Xiang; she'll disappoint him.

Mu Mian spoke her mind.

She is sorry.

"Don't worry, Madam Li, I will talk to Li Xiang about this matter. I am sorry for letting him down and for delaying him."

At this time.

Li Xiang's voice came from behind, "I heard everything."

Although I was heartbroken.

But Li Xiang still understood and supported it.

He would support whatever decision Mu Mian made.

A week later.

Mu's mother has been discharged from the hospital.

He had a very deep scar on his face, lost at least ten pounds, and had to have his left eyeball removed because it was cut in half and became infected later.

Now, Mu's mother can only see with one eye, which is not as convenient as before.

But this time she was calmer than ever before.

Having experienced life and death, she became more open-minded. She didn't blame Mu's father, nor did she take her anger out on him. Perhaps she knew in her heart that she would still need to rely on Mu's father in the future because of her mobility issues.

Mu Mian drove, and together with Mu Gang, they took Mu's parents back to their rural home.

They will stay in the countryside to retire from now on.

On the way back to the city.

"I heard that Mu Su confessed her feelings to you but you rejected her. Why?" Mu Mian asked.

Mu Su is a very good girl.

Since being rejected, she has been living a very depressed life. She often drinks with her friends, and when she gets drunk, she calls Mu Gang to berate him for being useless and a coward.

But Mu Gang still didn't soften his heart. "She's a good girl, I can't hold him back."

Mu Gang lacked confidence.

**

A month later.

Chen Fang and Gu Qianqian's wedding.

They finally got married.

It was even more lively than Bai Xian'er and Mu Lei's wedding, like a gathering of old friends. Everyone was quite busy, except for Bai Xian'er, who didn't drink any alcohol.

She actually wanted to drink, but Mu Lei stopped her. That's when everyone found out that Bai Xian'er was pregnant and about to become a mother.

That's a really good thing.

Everyone pointed at Mu Lei as he poured alcohol into a bottle.

One family is happy and the other is worried.

Taking advantage of her drunken state, Mu Su confessed her feelings again, but the object of her confession was not Mu Gang, but a handsome guy who looked quite nice at the wedding.

Mu Su asked him if he was single.

He said he was single.

Ask him if he likes her.

The handsome guy said he liked it.

She asked him if he dared to have a whirlwind marriage with her.

He said he dared.

The two became more and more serious as they talked, and the people around them cheered them on, telling them to kiss.

Mu Su even got into position.

In the end, Mu Gang dragged her away. Mu Gang finally stood up and gave Mu Su the explanation she longed for.

And what about Mu Mian and Gu Xiangque?

Their lives seemed very peaceful, like that of an ordinary married couple, until one day, Mu Mian found the divorce agreement she had signed five years ago in Gu Xiangque's study.

She then realized that only she had signed; Gu Xiangque hadn't signed at all.

So, are they still husband and wife?

Mu Mian took the divorce papers to the courtyard to find Gu Xiangque, "What does this mean?"

Gu Xiangque: "..."

He thought Mu Mian wouldn't find out.

Unexpectedly, she still found out.

Gu Xiangque called over Gu Xiaohua and Mu Xiaoguo, holding one child in each arm, and said, "If you two run away, who will save me?"
